Deming on Safety
“Currently, management works under the assumption
that people and not the systems they work in are
responsible for safety. We therefore, reward and punish
people but the system they work in remains
unchanged…” (W.E. Deming, July 11, 1992)
5
Deming's key points:
• Appreciate systems - fix the system not the blame.
Structure - inputs - processes - outputs
• Understand variation - special and common cause
• Understand human psychology - what motivates
• Obtain profound knowledge - based on facts, not
feelings
• Transform the individual - the worker is more than a
"unit of labor"

Undestand Safety Management Systems
Every system has structure, inputs,
processes and outputs
10
Safety & Health Management System
Inputs = Resources
Processes = Activities
Outputs = Conditions, Behaviors,
Results
11
“A safety system
is designed
perfectly to
produce what it is
producing.”
Which principle
reflects a total quality
safety management
approach?
Safety is
99% common
sense.”
12
Where do we look for clues that safety system
design and/or implementation are flawed?

Safety is an attribute of process quality
Two Important Characteristics of
a process
Complexity
Unnecessary work -- anything
that makes a process more
complicated. Does not add value
to a product or service.
What can occur that complicates the production or
service process?
15
Variation
Inherent in all inputs, processes, and
outputs. Any system that relies on
human behavior is inherently unreliable.
Two types of variation
Common Causes - reside in the system or process
General
Predictable
Typical
Special Causes - reside in an individual, materials, specific
machinery, tools, or equipment
UniqueUnpredictable
Atypical

Applying Deming’s 14 Points applied to
safety
1. Create constancy of purpose for
the improvement of product and service,
with the aim to become competitive and
to stay in business, and to provide jobs.
What is the traditional purpose of business?
According to Deming, what is the purpose of
business?
How can management create a constant sense of
purpose?
18
2. Adopt a new philosophy.
What are the programs, policies, procedures
emphasized in a trational (reactive) vs. the total quality
(proactive) safety philosophy?
19
DOING THE RIGHT THINGS RIGHT: Meeting customer's
needs
Work efforts can generally fall into one (or more) of the
following categories:
• Right Things Right - Things we should do and we do
well (+Leadership, +Management)
• Right Things Done Wrong - Things we should do but
don't do well (+Leadership, -Management)
• Wrong Things Done Right - Things we shouldn't do but
do well anyway (-Leadership, +Management)
• Wrong Things Done Wrong - Things we shouldn't do
and do poorly (-Leadership, -Management)

inspection to achieve quality.

Why is reliance on walkaround safety inspections not
an effective strategy?
What can a company do to improve safety without
relying on walk-around inspections?
List and describe your ideas:
22
4. End the practice of awarding
business on the basis of price tag.
Where does the safety process begin?
Why does quality suffer when companies do business
with a large number of suppliers?
What policies regarding the purchase of safe materials,
equipment, and tools might a company adopt to
improve safety?
23
5. Improve constantly and forever
the system of production and
service, to improve quality and
productivity, and thus constantly
decrease costs.
What approach to safety must a company take to
ensure continuous improvement?
What must a company do to make sure safety
problems are solved permanently?
24
6. Institute training and retraining on
the job.
What is the danger in too little safety training or
training not conducted by a competent person?
Who should do the training?
25
FIVE PILLARS: Key elements of a Quality organization
1.Customer Focus - Aligning all your processes to meet
customer needs
2.Total Involvement - Getting everyone involved in
improving processes
3.Systematic Support - Aligning organizational systems
with Quality principles and practices (i.e. budget,
evaluations)
4.Measurement - Establishing performance requirements
and monitoring
5.Continuous Improvement - Never settling for "good
enough"
26
7. Adopt and institute leadership.
What are the qualities of good leadership?
How can managers and supervisors display safety
leadership?
SAFETY STRATEGIC QUALITY GOAL
We will deliver the highest quality service to all
employees by continuously improving our safety
management processes to effectively meet their
ever-changing needs.
27
8. Drive out fear, so that everyone
may work effectively for the company.
Deming wrote that the “The economic loss from fear is
appalling.”
What did he mean by this statement, and how does it
apply to workplace safety?
28
9. Break down barriers between
staff areas.
Cooperation and competition. There’s a place for
both. But, why may it be harmful for employers to
create a climate of competition among departments?
In regard to safety, why is it important for various
departments to communicate and cooperate?
What workplace group is specifically responsible to
help break down safety barriers?
29
10. Eliminate slogans,
exhortations, and targets for the
work force asking for zero defects and
new levels of productivity.
Is it within the power of employees, alone, to achieve
zero accidents in the workplace? Why?
Is a “Zero Accidents” policy unrealistic? Why?
Why might the commonly seen “Safety First” poster
be ineffective in some instances?
30
11. Eliminate numerical quotas
for workers and people in
management. Substitute
leadership.
What’s wrong with focusing primarily on numerical
goals like accident rates or MOD rates to measure the
success of a safety program?
If, according to Deming, we shouldn’t measure the
safety success of a manager purely on numerical
results, what should we measure?
31
12. Remove barriers that rob
people of pride of workmanship.
What is “pride of workmanship”?
How can supervisors help increase pride of
workmanship?
According to Deming, why might annual performance
appraisals that rate or rank employee performance be
ineffective?
32
13. Institute a vigorous program
of education and selfimprovement for everyone.
What would a vigorous program in safety education
and self-improvement look like?
33
14. Take action to accomplish the
transformation.
How can you get everyone to participate in the
transformation to total safety improvement?
